Police looking for missing student Euan Coulthard, who vanished after a night out, have found a body in the River Wear.
Specialist marine diving units were called in following reports of the sighting of a body not far from where the law student was last seen.
Ambulance staff later wheeled a covered stretcher along the riverbank to a waiting vehicle.
A Durham Police spokeswoman said: "A formal identification is yet to take place. However Euan's family have been informed of the developments."
The 19-year-old vanished after going out with friends for a meal in Durham on Wednesday last week.
He then went to the Loveshack nightclub and was seen leaving alone in the early hours of Thursday.
CCTV images showed a figure they believe to be Mr Coulthard, who is from Nottingham, walking through the city centre and crossing Framwellgate Bridge.
Footage then shows the person walking down steps next to the Bishop Langley pub, towards the river.
Fellow students and friends have joined Durham Constabulary police officers in extensive searches of the city centre.
Mr Coulthard was described as 5ft 9ins tall, of average build, with light brown hair.
He was wearing black skinny jeans, a denim jacket and a beige patterned shirt when he was last seen.
A petition to improve riverbank safety has been launched recently because of safety concerns.
In the past 15 months, two other Durham University students - Sope Peters and Luke Pearce - also drowned in the river after nights out.
